Robert Redford didn’t just talk about change — he lived it. Through his work, his activism, and his mission in life, he leaves behind a legacy that inspires. I’m profoundly grateful to have been touched by it as a Sundance Institute Cultural Impact Fellow. RIP. cc: @sundance.org

Rest in peace, Patrick Hemingway. You were always such a delight at the PEN/Hemingway Award ceremonies at the JFK Library in Boston, a major repository for your dad Ernest Hemingway’s works.

I was interviewed for this upcoming BBC film about the forced adoption scandal and the use of DES (known as Stilbestrol in the UK). Filmed by BAFTA-winning documentary maker Lorraine McKechnie and BAFTA-winning director Kate Scholefield, it will be released early next year.

Just learned that I'm receiving a BIBO Award this October for my DES activism.

BIBO stands for "Beauty In/Beauty Out." These awards honor female role models and leaders in local communities across the US.

Last day of lensing for LITTLE AUDREY, my first produced feature film. I’m filled with such gratitude and thankful for everyone’s dedication and professionalism in making my dream a reality. I cannot wait for you all to see this film in 2026. You are in for a real treat!

LITTLE AUDREY is mentioned in this article about the hit US series REVENGE finding a new home on Channel 4 in the UK. Both the series and LITTLE AUDREY star #EmilyVanCamp and #JoshBowman. Having them bring my characters to life in LITTLE AUDREY has been a true pleasure.

Today was the last day of shooting on the sound stage. The rest of the shoot will take place at various locations. I’m so grateful to the cast and crew of LITTLE AUDREY for bringing my words to life. We’re leaving our mark — literally — on the studio wall.
